We're big fans of dual lens cameras for this era and this Minolta offers and interesting twist of the theme by offer a wider angles than most of the competition: it gives you the choice between a 28mm and 40mm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is well-designed point-and-shoot with very nice image quality. Our only real quibble is that it only meters between ISO 100 and 400 film so it's not a good choice for people who use specialty films like Ilford Delta 3200 or T-Max P3200. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBattery information\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera requires a \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e2CR5 battery (available as an option).

All features are working correctly. We verified the film plane focus accuracy with an autocollimator and its auto-exposure accuracy using a calibrated light source. The camera is in very good cosmetic condition with some normal wear from use (see photos). The included case shows significant wear from age (see photo). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExample photos \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere are some pictures that other people took with this model of camera (many of these have unusual colours, these are due to use of expired or specialty film rather than the camera itself):\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lomography.com\/cameras\/3364999-minolta-freedom-dual-c\/photos\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.lomography.com\/cameras\/3364999-minolta-freedom-dual-c\/photos\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lomography.com\/cameras\/3346352-minolta-riva-twin-28\/photos?order=trending\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.lomography.com\/cameras\/3346352-minolta-riva-twin-28\/photos?order=trending\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/4401\/3398\/files\/Riva_Twin_28_Q.D._-_Freedom_Dual_C_Q.D._Mode_d_Emploi_9222-2452-13_P103-A1.pdf?v=1773261557\" title=\"Mode d'emploi Minolta Riva 28\"\u003eFrench\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/4401\/3398\/files\/Riva_Twin_28_Q.D._-_Freedom_Dual_C_Q.D._-_Instruction_Manual_-_9222-2452-11_P106-A3.pdf?v=1773261557\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType: Compact autofocus 35mm camera with dual-lens selection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLenses: 28mm f\/4, 40mm f\/5.6, changed by built-in micromotor\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocusing: Infrared active-type autofocus with can-celable focus hold; lens range: 0.65m (2.1 ft.) to infinity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExposure system: Subject-weighted metering; programmed automatic exposure; range at ISO 100: EV 6.0 - EV 16.2 (28mm lens), EV 7.0 - 17.2 (40mm\u003cbr\u003elens)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlash system: Automatic charge activation; flash fires automatically when required; flash-cancel button prevents the flash from firing; flash-charging lamp and shutter lock during flash charge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilm-speed range: ISO 100 to 400 for DX-coded negative film; ISO 100 or 400 for DX-coded slide film; ISO 100 set for films without DX coding\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViewfinder: Bright-frame type with focus frame, standard-framing and close-framing guides; magnification coupled to lens setting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilm transport: Automatic threading, advance to first frame, winding, rewind, and rewind stop Self-timer: 10 sec. shutter release delay; can-celable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower: 6-volt lithium battery pack (2CR5)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBattery performance: approx. 45 rolls (Based on\u003cbr\u003eMinolta's standard test method, using 24-exposure film with flash on 50% of exposures)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlash recycling: 1.5 sec.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 143 X 75 X 53mm (5-5\/8 X 2-15\/16 X 2-1\/16 in.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuartz-date model: 143 X 75 X 53mm (5-5\/8 X 2-15\/16 X 2-1\/16 in.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight (without batteries): 270g (9-1\/2 oz.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuartz-date model: 280g (9-7\/8 oz.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eGuarantee and returns\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis used camera has a full 30-day guarantee.
